I loved the two nights I stayed at the garden cottage - it was lovely arrive at such a welcoming environment after a long flight which was also delayed. The directions in Thai for the taxi were invaluable - I was able to view and photograph using airport wifi but I suggest getting a SIM at airport so as to be able to phone Wutti when/if taxi gets confused. The place is spotlessly clean and Wutti and his family were wonderful hosts. I didn't use one of the two the complimentary bicycles merely because I didn't have appropriate clothing, but really appreciated that they were available and will certainly be more prepared next time because the neighbourhood is perfect for cycling.
I accidentally left something behind and Wutti offered to send it to my next address - he really did go that extra mile with his availability and almost instant responses to messages.
I liked the distance from the city because of how quiet the neighbourhood is, and even though I flew in and out of Survarnabhumi airport I didn't mind the travel time. Even in rush traffic it took about 45 mins, and getting to the city is easy - if you don't want to taxi the whole way, just get taxi to Mo Chit BTS about 10-15 mins.
